This document is a Project 10073 record card and associated military teletype report concerning an Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) sighting that occurred on June 7, 1959, near Rossville, Georgia. A civilian witness reported observing a single, white, circular object descending in a gliding path as if to land. The observation lasted for approximately three minutes. The report was filed by the 867th ACWRON (Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron) at Flintstone AFS, Tennessee, and directed to various Air Defense Command and Air Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC) entities. The reporting officer, 2nd Lieutenant Kelvin K. Wolferse, noted that the report was taken via telephone, which limited the ability to conduct a more thorough investigation. In his assessment, Lieutenant Wolferse suggested that the witness likely observed a natural phenomenon, such as starlight, or possibly a light civilian aircraft, noting that Lovell Field was located nearby. The document includes standard meteorological data for the time of the sighting, which indicated clear conditions. The report concludes that further analysis was not possible due to the nature of the initial telephone report.

It is the reporting officers opinion that the observer might have noticed a natural phenomenon, such as starlight.
